Assignment Instructions

  • In this module, we will begin with the first phase of creating your plan. You will engage in some assessment and reflection addressed toward giving you a picture of “Who am I”? Then you will write up what you have learned about yourself in a two- to three-page paper. The paper should be an integrated essay assessing your current attributes and capabilities as a leader. Do not just line up the four topics below and report on them as in a short-answer test. Use them to “tell the story” of who you are.

Keys to the Assignment

To assess yourself as a leader, consider the following and incorporate your answers into your paper.

  • What are your values?

    • Make a list of everything that is important to you in life. Do not censor or edit anything, just get it all on paper. You may find that you think of things you would not have expected.
    • Read through the list several times, choose the five most important values, and list them in order of importance.
    • Define each value in terms of why it is important to you.
  • What is your leadership style?
    • You have undoubtedly assessed your leadership style in one or more classes or at work. If you can recall your dominant style, name and describe it. The most common styles are authoritarian, consulting, participative, and delegating, but there are others.
      • Using the authoritative style, you tend to make all important decisions, including how jobs are performed.
      • Using the consulting style, you ask for employee input, but then make the decision yourself.
      • Using the participative style, you involve employees as partners in the decision.
      • Using the delegating style, you empower employees to make the decisions on their own as appropriate.
    • If you want to take a new assessment questionnaire, there are many on the Internet. Just cite the instrument you are using.
  • What motivates you?
    • Not everyone is motivated by the same things. What does it for you? Compensation, titles, perks, social status, money, helping others, doing a good job, winning?
    • Repeat the process you used in assessing your values.
  • How are your skills in the following competencies?
    • Developing subordinates: fostering employee engagement and commitment to the job and the organization, developing job-related skills and abilities, building decision-making capabilities, encouraging personal accountability for job responsibilities.
    • Modeling desirable behaviors: As a leader you are the “voice” of the organization. You exemplify its ethics, values, and expectations of employees. You do not ask people to do things you would not do yourself.
    • Challenging the status quo: Are you willing to try something different, think outside the box, take risks? Leaders do not simply accept things the way they have always been, but ask, “How can we do it better?”
    • Accountability: Leaders take responsibility for getting the job done. Leaders try new ideas, create action plans, and evaluate results.

  • CASE 2

Developing a vision statement

In Module 1, you began the process of the Leadership Growth Plan with a thorough self-assessment. Then you identified and prioritized your most important values and motivators and explored your basic leadership style. In this module, you will establish your vision and determine what you need to do to become the kind of leader that other people will follow. The path to leadership will contain obstacles. To deal with obstacles, determine the sacrifices you are willing to make, identify hidden opportunities, and divide the problem into manageable pieces.

Keys to the Assignment

The following instructions are adapted from Project Kaleidoscope.

Write your vision (1-2 pages)

Imagine it is 10 years into the future. You feel that you have achieved your potential and become the leader you have always wanted to be. Write a story to describe your vision of yourself.

Do not get hung up on past accomplishments and future plans, and do not worry about barriers. Use some of these questions to guide your thinking:

  • What is your typical day like?
  • Who do you interact with?
  • What are you thinking about?
  • What are you feeling?
  • What skills do you possess?

While you are dreaming, think about your legacy. Imagine yourself at the end of your career. What do you want people to say about you after you are gone? How must you start living now in order for that to happen?

When you have finished writing your story, summarize the vision so it is easy to remember. Think of something or someone that symbolizes it. This summary should be no longer than three or four sentences and should be denoted in the paper by a separate heading. Keeping your personal vision in mind is highly motivating.

Identify obstacles (1-2 pages)

Internal obstacles are thoughts, opinions, and beliefs that can prevent you from moving forward. External obstacles are situations or conditions outside of yourself that can prevent you from achieving your goals. Make a chart comparing the internal and external barriers you see as standing in the way of achieving your vision.

Nearly all internal barriers are within your control. The barriers outside of your control are largely external. These are things you have no influence over. It is fruitless to fret over barriers you cannot control. Focus on the ones you have some control over.

There are three proven techniques for dealing with obstacles:

  • Decide what you are willing to give up in order to eliminate the obstacle.
  • Identify hidden opportunities or strategies that could help you face the obstacle.
  • Chunk the problem into manageable pieces, so you can deal with each smaller piece separately. You could also compromise. This would enable you to accomplish two seemingly independent tasks or goals at once.

How will you overcome your obstacles?

SLP Assignment Expectations

  • Include a cover page and reference page in addition to the 2-3 pages of analysis described above.
  • Your paper should have an introduction and a conclusion.
  • Use headings to indicate major sections of the report.
  • Cite and reference any outside sources.
  • Use APA formatting.

Please use 1-2 references

Setting Personal Leadership Goals

In Module 1, you began the process of developing a Leadership Growth Plan (LGP) with a thorough self-assessment. In Module 2, you established your vision, identified obstacles to achieving that vision, and made plans to overcome the obstacles. In this module, you will continue to develop your LGP by setting goals and conducting an assessment of resources you will need to accomplish your goals. The outcome of this exercise is a 2- to 3-page plan that specifies 3 to 4 goals you would like to accomplish in the next year and sets clear objectives for what you will need to do to achieve them.

Keys to the Assignment

Perhaps the hardest part of setting goals is getting started. Begin by considering the following:

  • Ask yourself: “What do I need to be doing in order to achieve my vision?” Think in terms of what you can accomplish by next year. These are the milestones that describe your goals. They define what you intend to do.
  • Next, look at each goal separately and ask yourself:
    • “What do I need to do to reach this goal?”
    • “What skills do I need to acquire?”
    • “What new knowledge do I need?”

The answers to these three questions constitute your objectives.

Objectives are shorter term than goals and specify what you need, when you need it, and how you are going to get it. While goal statements are helpful in that they set a direction, objectives provide the “roadmap” that will get you to your vision. Objectives tell you exactly what you need to do, how you need to do it, and provide a timeline.

Strong objectives meet the following criteria:

  • They are specific. When you write your objectives, use action words that have a tangible outcome such as identify, demonstrate, perform, or calculate. You will be able to assess when you have met these types of objectives. Avoid words like understand, appreciate, know, or learn. These terms are too vague. How will you be able to assess whether or not you “understand”?
  • They are challenging. Difficult, but attainable objectives will help you cultivate a greater leadership capacity. If an objective is too easy, you will not grow. If it is too difficult, you may end up frustrated and the goal will be unfulfilled.

Your goals and objectives form the outline of your development plan. To flesh it out, determine what actions are required to meet your objectives. These actions usually make up the greater part of the leadership development plan itself.

Putting it all together and writing up the plan

  • Fortunately, there are a lot of templates on the internet to help you create an action plan. Begin by doing some research and select a template that will allow you to present your goals, objectives, and timeline. You will also need to identify the resources you will need. Most of these templates are some type of table, and it is easy to follow what will need to be done, by when.
  • The critical component of this assignment is to be specific about what actions you will take to gather the resources you will need to meet your goals. The following list gives a number of specific actions you can include in your plan, but you should not stop with these. Use your own initiative and creativity to come up with additional formal, informal, directed, and self-directed actions you can take to meet your Leadership Growth Plan.
    • Reading – This is the basic and most fundamental way to stay current in your area of expertise, gain new knowledge, and be inspired. Your plan should include regular reading of professional journals, trade publications, books, and reputable online resources.
    • Training programs and courses – Formal courses and training seminars can be effective and efficient ways of learning new skills and expanding your leadership capacities. Many companies offer such training opportunities, but also check independent or consulting firms in specific areas such as motivation, performance appraisal, cross-cultural communication, or mentoring. Check out the internet, but also local colleges and Universities. Certificates can offer cost and time-effective ways to home in on developing specific skills such as human resources or project management.
    • On the job – even if your current position does not involve leadership responsibilities, you can look for ways to learn leadership through practical experience by mentoring a younger or newer employee, chair a task force, prepare a presentation, or simply work to develop your active listening skills on a daily basis.
    • Volunteering – Join a civic group, charity, board of a non-profit, political campaign, fundraising effort, or other community service. Be the first to offer to take on a new project or supervise other volunteers. Represent the group on radio, TV, or press as the spokesperson.
    • Find a mentor – identify someone who has what you want and ask if they will show you the ropes. Let her know that you want to develop specific skills, such as public speaking or organizing events and would be interested in being a helping hand to learn these skills. Ask for feedback from supervisors and let them know you would welcome leadership opportunities.
    • Journaling – often overlooked, a habit of writing about problems, learnings, obstacles encountered and overcome, and even hopes and dreams of the future can help set direction and increase motivation. A journal can document what you are learning and how it can apply to your leadership development.

SLP Assignment Expectations

  • Include a cover page and reference page in addition to the 2-3 pages of analysis described above.
  • Your paper should have an introduction and a conclusion, but the main part of the assignment may be a well-constructed, professionally designed table.
  • Use headings to indicate major sections of the report.
  • Cite and reference any outside sources.
  • Use APA formatting.
